_________________________________________________
So many people want to read the Bible but don't know how to begin.
It's hard to understand. Things don't make sense.
My plan is to help you change that.
In this new series called "Beyond the Words," I'm going to reveal for you the history, context, and other details that will bring scripture to life in an entirely new way, and help you feel like you can understand it as never before.
This week, we're going to look closely at Mark 4. In this chapter, you'll learn things like:
- Are We Supposed to Understand Parables?
- What the Parable of the Sower/Seeds Really Means
- What Jesus means when he says "whoever has will be given more"
- And more!
I'm really excited about this series! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch!

Yoh that part when you said "when Jesus looks at you and says you still dont have enough faith" - Oh man hit me hard, we had a MightyMen meeting in South Africa 3 months ago which I was at. And my friend who I went with who has child like faith was called upon by the Holy Spirit with 3 other gentleman to pray over a old man who was in a wheelchair. This old man literally didnt have any hips and he got up and walked after powerful prayers over him. It happened right in front of me and even the circumstances leading to us sitting where we were was a miracle in itself. Praise Jesus and just as you said here even witnessing things like this there are times when worry hits me and I look inward to sort out my issues and Jesus says "Hey, keep your eyes on me" Ah man I just love the Lord so much and I am so grateful even when my faith lacks I will keep running back to my Heavenly Father! Thank you for your words brother!

Your emphasis on culture, language, history and the individuals in the time of Jesus and before, takes me far beyond the Bible to new places and ideas.

@kristie6589 2 года назад

Oh my brother Brandon, I can so see in my mind now Jesus dropping the mic!!! 🤣 your true honesty about "knowing EXACTLY what it all means" and admitting we can't" is BEAUTIFUL!! Especially for a Pastor to admit! But let's face it HE SAID WE WOULD NOT! We can try our best but our spirits NEED to grow. I suppose better put, we need to let them grow! But we can read it 100 times before that Revaluation may hit us!! And you FINALLY get to (OH THAT'S WHAT THAT MEANS) is awesome to me!! Thanks again for a wonderful video and explaining so we all can better understand! SEED, PLANT, HARVEST, (not only everything we eat, touch, see,, and WE, came through that law)!! GLORY BE TO GOD! God Bless 🙏❣

@Awakeningspirit20 9 месяцев назад

8:21 you're absolutely right here... I up until not long ago used to claim that the Bible was "illegible" in English, it simply couldn't be read or understood... then I watched "The Chosen". Then I began to want to get into my Gospels and Bible. Suddenly I'm now able to look in my cherished Gideons New Testament and be blown away at not just how "legible" it is, but how it speaks EXACTLY to my situation and life. Praise God now and forever.

What a gift you are, I listened the other day that you was thinking about quitting but now “The Chosen” came out, this has given you a voice to help all of us to understand the Bible, what a gift you are taken a part in, God didn’t want you to quit 🥰 Thank You for hanging in there and now your gifts have come at just the right time 🙏🏼 God is Good 🥰 none of us who are not Jewish really understand these messages, so Thank You for all the clarity about the Bible, so true I do not understand everything Jesus is saying most of the time, you have opened my eyes along with this great show “The Chosen”, I wish I could get my adult children to watch just the movie, I’ve bought the DVD’s and some clothes hopefully they see and check it out 🙏🏼 I’ve also paid it forward, I believe God will open the eyes of all of us and my children, Especially during these trying times with the virus and this administration🙏🏼 who is trying to destroy Christianity ✝️

@sammyosifeso Год назад

I'm super blessed by this message. The part when you talked about after God had answered your prayers and you've seen mighty workings of the holy spirit and God still asks you, "do you have faith", it's like you were talking to me. Last year, I passed through a lot, I lost my mum the previous years, lost a lot of money, my laptop was stolen and I didn't have any means to pay my school fees, I was almost depressed if not for people around me God used for me and funny enough, God came through in a miraculous way that I could never imagine. Similar thing happened this year, no means to pay school fees, I was owing my rent and there was a business I entered into with some people that didn't go well and I ran into debt. I was almost doubting God cause I didn't know what else I could do or where I could look to, coupled with all of these was the fact that because of my greed, I was duped and I had to sell my phone to pay the debt. Since then I just put my trust in God and he surprised my family and I in a very big way and as I speak, I'm writing this testimony with a new phone. This is is just a few of the great things God has done in my life this year and it reminds me of a passage in I think Hebrews where it said, "...if we are faithless, he's ever faithful..." I really need to repent from everytime I've not had faith and as you said, give him our all and by so doing, more would be added. Thank you Mr Brandon. I really appreciate sir. God bless you.

@trevorjameson3213 2 года назад

Thank you for explaining these parables, it all makes sense now. I've read them many times and sort of understood them, but not entirely or at a deeper level. Much of what Jesus said when he was teaching is so deep that it goes right over my head sometimes. Thankfully, there are people like you, who the Holy Spirit is using, to teach us these deeper things that Jesus was teaching us.

Thank you for your time for us to help us learn the Bible, I hear you talk about the Bible I learn more and more each time. Some things I've learned growing up, After many years gone by and not reading the Bible, I'v seen like the ten commandments and the passion of Chris, and much more biblical movies that helped me understand what Jesus was like back then. I didn't know that we were supposed to learn to read the scriptures and memorize them too That's way it blew my mind that you mention that the Jewish people had to memorize the scriptures that's a lot to handle for one person's brain, is over whelming for us when we were not taught that way. So I'm like wow the Jewish people had it turf I send lots of blessings to them, and you too Brandon

Jesus healed me when i was a toddler although i do not remember it. My Mom did and told me what had happened. I was born prematurely, i was 3 lbs 5 oz at birth and healthy in most ways. When i started growing older however her doctor noticed that my spine was severely misaligned, i had a hard time learning to sit up and could not do it without being held. By the time i was 15 months old while most children at that age are walking, i was still struggling to crawl. At this point her doctor was suggesting surgery with the risk of me either needing a back brace at the least or being in a wheelchair for the rest of my life at the worst if it did not work. We took a trip to New York to visit my Grandparents and they during that trip brought my parents and i to their church on a Sunday Morning. The Pastor during his sermon saw my Mom and me and asked her to come up front so she did with me in her arms. According to her he told her to put me down on the floor which she did and he starting praying along with other members of the church. She told me after not talking a step or even standing upright by myself, all of a sudden i stood up and ran to my Grandfather, not walked, ran to him. Jesus had healed me and everyone starting singing and praising God. She said it was like a bolt of electricity had gone through me. When we returned home, her doctor was astonished to find out that my spine was completely normal. I thank God for healing me even through i have no memory of it because of my age then.
